I have 245 rubber on 8" wide wheels with effective 30mm offset in the rear, and it's fine. Same setup 35mm offset in front, and it's also fine.

Wow, I didn't think that you could go that low, +30, on the rears without rubbing.

Got my G35 Coupe wheels on with 235/40/18 Nitto 555's. I absolutely love the way the car looks now. The 30mm offset is perfect in the front and the back. The wheels come right to the fender edge, there is no tuck. I washed the car Saturday afternoon but the pollen has killed the shine already. Once the pollen is gone I will wash and detail and take some pics.

Keep us updated on the pics.

Hey Lumbee1 - Bring on those pics!

Pictures:

G35 Coupe wheels. Purchased for $700 off ebay from a local guy that only put 50 miles on them. Discount Tire stripped the Michelin Pilots off of the wheels for me and I turned around and sold the tires on ebay for $550 (could have easily gotten $650). Purchased Nitto 555's 235/40/18's and had the wheels and tires mounted.

I do have dust caps installed on the rear wheels. I am going to pull those off and install the Infiniti center caps. Currently the dust cap prevents the center cap from being full installed.

Nobody with the 350Z track wheels? I would like to see what they would look like on a max!

From what I have heard, those are staggered wheels and they will not work on the Maxima. The rear will rub.

Hey Lumbee1-

Your Max looks great. Got my g35 wheels sitting in boxes and i need to buys tires. So what kind of suspension setup are you running?

Maxspeeds with blown stock struts. I would like to go a little lower.

Lumbee, I love those wheels on your Majestic Blue I just might switch my chromes for those I could probably get a good deal if I trade mines for the G35 wheels...

I was bored:

Aren't those the 04 Maxima SE rims. Oh wait.....Are they the same rims as the Z?

Lumbee, your max looks great!

Lumbee - Your car looks amazing! I can't believe how sick they look with a mild drop on majestic blue. I've been considering these for awhile but your drops really gives me a feel for how they'd look on my car.

So how much did the ride degrade with the move to 18's?

Oh, BTW - your ride is now on my desktop. Good work!

Ride didn't degrade at all. Road noise from the Nitto 555 is obvious now but I have already gotten use to it.

I have had Kumho 712's and the Nitto 555's. The Kumho were grippy and would corner on rails. The Nittos aren't as grippy and don't corner as well but are definitely more comfortable.

When I first put them on I was afraid that the G35 wheels would be incredibly heavy. After punching it a few times I quickly realized I was wrong.

These are extremely high quality wheels. Much better build than the MM Evo 5's I had.

Same here....Your Maxima pic is on my desktop.

Didn't realize you had Evo's previously - what specifically makes you feel the G35C wheels are higher quality than the Evo's?

Also, any concerns about removing the dustcap? Aren't you risking bearing (I assume) failure?

Here is a NEW set of 17" 350z wheels off my friends new 350z. Since im sellin my Axis SEven Mods, I put these wheels on my car till i get my new wheels!



FOR SALE IF ANYONE WANTS THEM! CHECK CLASSIFIEDS!

The finish on the Evo 5 seems thin and it scratches easily. The inside lip on the Evo 5 is also very plain while the G35C wheel seems to be much more rugged with a very strong lip.

Removing the dustcap shouldn't cause a problem. I have dustcaps on the rear but nothing on the front. Most members have dustcaps on the front but not on the rear and other have no dustcaps at all. Once the dustcap is removed the center cap for the wheel will go on and protect all vital components.

maximazero, you have a very big talent in body kit/automotive styling. You would make some good money if you did these kinds of things man...

Damn, that pic looks hot! Just noticed it... is this a photoshop image or the real thing?

The wheels are chopped...

still looks bad$$!!

what a great place to take your pictures man. looks great

A bad pic of my car with 350Z Track Edition's before the drop.

Looks great, wojo

I remember seeing someone in the 4th gen forum put 18" SE rims from an '04 Max on thier 4th gen, can't remember who it was but it looked tight

I think I saw your rims for sale on ebay...

Not much to show, but white 5th gen with those wheels...thought it could be you?

Nope. Not me. I'm not selling mine anytime soon. I really like the design and look on my ride! PEACE
